Not to mention before the war; a common agitprop phrase in the post-revolutionary period was "communism is soviet power plus the electrification of the whole country'—can you imagine living in the middle of bumfuck nowhere, not having electricity, and then suddenly getting it? The US had their own rural electrification programs at the same time. Although they weren't quite as ambitious by comparison, the feats of the Tennessee Valley Authority are much envied to this day. The difference between having electricity and not having electricity only seems marginal because you likely have never gone very long without it for more than a handful of times in your life. Same applies to housing in general.
